Newsnight 13th May 2010: "With the role of Deputy Prime Minister a non-job. Has Nick Clegg gone from King Maker to tea maker????"
I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew
Between the wars:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4486.png |

Just found out an interesting fact about Keith. He's the only man to have played for Latics and Wigan Rugby.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

One of my friends went too see him in hospital last week. Keith didn't want any fuss.
He was one of life's true gentleman.
Sincere condolences to all his family and friends.

| Quote: "Keith Mills, who works in the Warriors' lottery shop and is of the rare breed that supports both teams. He remains the only man to play both for Wigan's football and rugby teams, courtesy of three appearances as reserve goalkeeper for the Latics in 1963 and 30 first-team rugby league games between 1965 and 1970.'"
RIP Keith, one of the nicest men you could wish to meet, a lovely man.
My sincere condolences to his wife & family. |

Very sad to hear this. He was one of those figures who was always about, the bloke with the 'magic sponge' when players picked up knocks.
Pretty sure my dad played cricket against him on a few occasions too.

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Sad, sad news. Deepest condolences to all friends and family.
Definitely a true Wiganer and a fixture around the club for many, many years.
Growing up he lived across the way from us in Whelley. I remember, back in the 80's, being taken round by my Dad and being allowed to play with the Challenge Cup that Keith had brought home for the evening!
Cheers for that Keith! RIP.

He's been like part of the furniture at Wigan hasn't he. A real sad loss of a bloke that lived for the club.
RIP and thoughts to his family and friends.
